Talurit GmbH Managing Director Uli Kaltenbrunner to Leave Talurit Group After 32 Years of Service

After more than three decades of devotion, Uli Kaltenbrunner, Managing Director of Talurit GmbH, will leave the company.

Uli joined the German company (then Gerro GmbH) in the early 1990s and officially stepped into the role of Managing Director in 1997. He has been a central figure in the development of Talurit Group’s business in Europe. Uli always led with professionalism, precision, and a strong commitment to both people and quality. Under his leadership, Talurit GmbH has grown into a modern and efficient facility, serving as a key hub for the Group’s European operations.

Throughout his tenure, Uli has been known for his close connection to the market and his deep understanding of customers’ operations. His expert knowledge of regulations, standards, and best practices has helped ensure that Talurit’s solutions meet demanding safety and quality requirements, further strengthening the company’s reputation as a trusted partner in mechanical splicing and wire rope handling.

Uli Kaltenbrunner comments, “After more than 32 years, this marks a significant and emotional transition. While it is a difficult end to a long journey, I am grateful and proud for having had the opportunity contributing and being an acknowledged part of Talurit Group.”

“Uli has been instrumental in building Talurit Group’s strong position in Europe, a cornerstone of our success” says Victor Lindh, CEO of Talurit Group. “He has combined deep technical expertise with genuine care for people – employees, partners, and customers alike. His leadership has always been grounded in long-term relationships, trust, integrity and a clear sense of responsibility. On behalf of the entire Group, I want to extend my warmest thanks to Uli for his many years of commitment and outstanding contribution.”

One of many highlights during Uli’s leadership was the expansion of the German facilities in 2015, increasing the factory space to approximately 3 400 m². As part of this development, Talurit GmbH invested in solar panels on the factory roof – an initiative that has proven successful both economically and from a sustainability perspective. This investment reflects Uli’s strong advocacy for environmentally friendly and energy-efficient solutions, and his belief that operational excellence and sustainability should go hand in hand.

“Working with Uli has been a privilege. His thoughtful approach and steady leadership created a strong foundation for collaboration across borders. He’s not only a great leader but a great person. We will miss him dearly and wish him all the best in his next chapter.” says Neil Cooke, Managing Director at Talurit UK. “He has consistently shown honesty and a genuine interest in others. Many of us in the UK and across Europe have built close, long-standing relationships with him. His integrity, reliability, and humour will be missed – but his influence will remain part of how we work and do business.”

An orderly handover process is underway, and Talurit Group will communicate the new management structure for Talurit GmbH at a later stage. During the transition period, operations in Germany will continue as normal, with the team committed to providing the same high level of service and support to customers and partners.

As Talurit GmbH prepares for the next step in its expansion, Talurit Group extends their heartfelt thanks to Uli for his outstanding contributions, tireless service, and the enduring impact he has made within their global team. Wishing him joy, health, and adventure in the years ahead.
